The Art of Friendly Confrontation Shirley Mathey

This book was written after many years of working in the classroom with high school juniors
and seniors in a group situation where I was quite and I let the students talk.
They loved having a place to speak about their own lives. They would not miss the
discussions on Fridays.
My most difficult teacher was my mother, who adored me but she was skilled in getting her
way. I finally told her off when I was 48. It tells you of the strength of another person
who is in charge.
This is the relationship challenge to understand and cope with the various people in our
lives. Are we to blame or do we need to understand how to cope differently.
Learning to master yourself. That's what Confrontation is all about! Whew!
